Most people don't like the sound of their own voice, and for various reasons including security / privacy don't like to appear on camera - all fair enough. But I for one would love to see some short videos from you Dean on anything cnc related. Just use captions to describe what you want to say, which should make editting easier because you don't have to get it right in front of the camera. Washouts recent videos are great, and the secret lies in the editting and keeping things tight. For the best examples on the net of how to do it see John at NYCCNC on youtube.
A picture paints and thousand words, and a movie paints a thousand pictures. If you are a newbie it is so hard to convey how good a machine needs to be to machine certain materials, and the design requirements to do so. Only when you have built in, run it, broken or bent it and heard the cutter just not being happy doing what you are asking it to do do you realise what you need and that comments posted on here from experienced builders start to make sense. A video showing things would really help to win people over earlier. Washouts inclusion of aluminium tool weld problem was really good to see for exactly that reason.
I downloaded the free Window Movie Maker programme to make my recent one and it works fine, so there's no excuse really ! I can feel myself subscribing to Dean's channel already . . . . .

Well sorry Lads there's not enough hours in day already so don't be expecting any block busters from me any time soon.!! . . For example I'm sat here now typing this while setting up Servos trying to decipher Chinglish manuals and at same time baby sitting my machine which is working away with still 1.5hrs cutting left.!! Then I've got the lovely task of cleanup and de-bur.!! . . . . would you really like to see that boring stuff because I wouldn't.?
I wouldn't have the time to edit and do them justice. I'm also not kitted up for videos and I'd make Mr Bean look like spielberg with my camera work.!
Washout to be fair my most of my i-machining is plane boring wide deep Pockets for things like Z axis ballscrew clearence and completely mind numbing to watch.! . . . .Next time I get something worth watching I will try to take a Video. But it won't be anything like your excellent Vids.!
If did do videos it wouldn't be cutting vids in any because because while inspiring and motivating to some I find them boring personaly.!
They would be Info related and relative to building a CNC machine start to finish. Modular detailed step by step Start to finish vids.
I'd also probably do Vids testing/reviewing different Hardware etc with No Bull warts all bought and paid for by me unbiased by obligation real honest user feed back.!! . . . Which probably wouldn't go down well with Some Manufactures.! (I've cupboard full of stuff that would make some companys cringe if I did this.!!)
I can make all this happen but only if I win the Lottery or H.G Wells lands in my yard with his Time machine.!!
Speaking of which only 1hour left now with my time machine, time eating machine.!! . . . . . Don't wait up for my Vids..Last edited by JAZZCNC; 05-11-2015 at 11:27 PM.

Of course, our Jazz is already a video star! Very useful little clip showing repeatability of cheap proximity switches. Thanks for that one
